(lyrics to song "dosed")

I got dosed by you
Closer than most to you
what am I supposed to do
Take it away I never had it anyway
Take it away and everything will be okay

In you a star is born
you cut a perfect form
someone forever warm
lay on

Way upon the mountain where she died
all I ever wanted was your life
deep inside the canyon I can't hide
all I ever wanted was your life

Show love with no remorse
climb onto your seahorse
this ride is right on course
this is the way I wanted it to be with you
this is the way I knew that it would be with you

Way upon the mountain where she died
all I ever wanted was your life
deep inside the canyon I can't hide
all I ever wanted was your life
